Buzz bomb, no buying that re finance, look at the list of teams who’ve progressed at our expense over the years. I’d have liked to have seen us invest heavily in an infrastructure and manger/ s but at same time bring in the right quality of player, for years now we’ve wasted so much money on recruitment alone. Behind the scenes is the biggest problem.

I don’t think it matters too much who is the Celtic Chairman or who is on the Celtic board because they only follow the instructions of Dermot Desmond, who runs the club.
I think it would take over £40 million to buy Dermot Desmond out and I can’t see that happening anytime soon.
Celtic need to change our summer recruitment process because we’re never ready for the Qualifiers.
But I don’t think Dermot Desmond is the type of guy who takes advice or likes to be told what to do.
He showed that in November with the Lennon fiasco.

Ange must work with what he's got until the January window. From now until then, he should be able to see what he's got and assess. I've no doubt he'll identify players we have that don't fit, and then maybe bring others in. The aim is to stabilize in January, and that's the core for the qualifiers. No panic buys!

Next summer, we have to see what we want, and what's available in our price range. Also, we have to consider kids coming through, which should be the real aim.

Remember, not all the players we bring in will fit the system Ange is trying to develop. That's normal, as it happened many times before, and not just with us. Hopefully, Ange can identify what will fit before we buy a player.

We'd all like instant success, but to build a team, especially from the shambles Ange inherited, generally always takes time. More so, given that Ange is introducing a new style. That always takes time, and we must be patient. Hard I know, especially after a loss!

We've had a bumpy ride so far, and this could be the story of our season, but I feel upbeat! Let's see where we are next May.
